The meeting closed at 20:50 hours 1163 Signed by Chairman Appendix 1 – Councillor reports Cllr Peter Cooper - Report to Parish Councils March 2018 Unitary transition Sajid Javid, Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government has announced that he is ‘minded’ to confirm that Buckinghamshire will become a single Unitary Authority based on the proposals put forward by Bucks County Council. He said that, in his judgement, this would be more efficient than the twin North South Unitary solution put foreword by the four Bucks District Councils. It appeared to him that the single Unitary had the greatest support of the public. The final decision will be made by parliament following a 10-week public consultation period, which effectively starts 14th March 18. 1. Oxford Cambridge Expressway The District Council will meet on 15th March to make its recommendation to the government on route selection. The proposals being considered are: A. Southerly from Cambridge to north of Dunstable, then Aylesbury, Thame and Oxford. This route would impact heavily on Mentmore, Wingrave, Rowsham and possibly Aston Abbotts B. Mid from Cambridge following the re-opened East West Rail link, passing South of Milton Keynes, Winslow then on to Oxford. This would appear to be the preferred route. C. Northerly from Cambridge to Milton Keynes, Buckingham, Bicester and Oxford. The Expressway will attract considerable volumes of new housing, business etc and are intended to form the UK equivalent of Silicon Valley, the centre of future high-tech industries. The government are giving this project a high degree of priority and intend to commence construction within 2 years. 2. New Railways Construction of the East West rail link now has new impetuous and work is expected to start this year with the Bicester to Milton Keynes section opening by 2022. Preparatory construction of HS2 is now underway and large-scale construction will become evident this year. 3. Local Plan The new local plan VALP has been submitted to the government inspectorate for discussion, consultation and approval. If all goes well, we anticipate the plan being made at the end of 2018. 4. Litter picking It has been become evident that some parishes may have become excluded from the regular highways litter picking programme that is carried out by contractors on behalf of AVDC. It has been established that both Mentmore and Slapton have been adversely affected, but this has now been corrected and recent picking visits completed in those villages. If any other villages have not spotted the professional litter pickers in recent years, please let me know. 1164 Signed by Chairman County Cllr Netta Glover Vice Chairman of Bucks County Council Unitary decision - representations You can give your views on the unitary decision before 25 May 2018.

The proposed solution is for a large underground storage tank at the south of the site with a pumping scheme that connects into the Nup End Lane Sewer near to Nup End Farm. The Nan Ayers and the end of Chiltern Road foul sewers are proposed to be connected into this new system. The Parish Council wrote to David Stamateris at Thames Water Developer Services, asking for a review of the proposal and an assertion that if used the sewage system was fit for purpose and had the capacity to handle the additional effluent. The Parish Council sent the completed resident survey on sewage issues in Twelve Leys and Nup End which had 58 responses to David Stamateris. To further emphasize the concern, copies of all this correspondence, was sent to Steve Robertson the CEO of Thames Water, with a request to review the Thames Water responses. On the 6th of March a telephone call was received from Julie Walton an assistant in the CEO’s office. She reported that Thames Water Developer Services, consider the Nup End sewer has the capacity for the new development and the additional load and it is the appropriate solution.

  • Aylesbury Vale North Locality Profile
    Aylesbury Vale North Locality Profile Prevention Matters Priorities The Community Links Officer (CLO) has identified a number of key Prevention Matters priorities for the locality that will form the focus of the work over the next few months. These priorities also help to determine the sort of services and projects where Prevention Matters grants can be targeted. The priorities have been identified using the data provided by the Community Practice Workers (CPW) in terms of successful referrals and unmet demand (gaps where there are no appropriate services available), consultation with district council officers, town and parish councils, other statutory and voluntary sector organisations and also through the in depth knowledge of the cohort and the locality that the CLO has gained. The CLO has also worked with the other CLOs across the county to identify some key countywide priorities which affect all localities. Countywide Priorities Befriending Community Transport Aylesbury Vale North Priorities Affordable Day Activities Gentle Exercise Low Cost Gardening Services Dementia Services Social Gardening Men in Sheds Outreach for Carers Background data Physical Area The Aylesbury Vale North locality (AV North) is just less than 200 square miles in terms of land area (500 square kilometres).
